girlfriend to Magali's son Léo but even more devoted to Magali, is hatching her own plot to fix [up] the older woman. Even more ambitious than Isabelle, Rosine hopes to kill two birds with a single stone by matching Magali with her own older lover (and former philosophy professor) Étienne and thus force an end to their relationship.
